I have a 99 A4 1.8tQ, I ordered the wheels in 18x8 ET38, and 18x9 ET 38, the rear inside of the tires rub on the suspension arm by a little bit. So the place i ordered the wheels from is sending me 5mm and 3mm spacers to try, they said that they fit though. The tires im running are 235/40/18 FRONT. 265/35/18 REAR. Has anyone else had this problem. Let me know please. And the car is not lowered. Any help or tips would be appreciated.

 

Well thanks for all the responses, i solved it myself by adding some spacers to the rear.

 

What size did you use? just curious.

 

5mm
